I know this reply is 5 days late, but on the off chance that you read this, it is possible to play UM without using real money....However to raise your UM past a certain level, you will need to enter PVP zones. If you want to level in these zones, you will need items like Continuous res runes, Prevent Item Drops and Prevent Experience Drops. Even for lower level PVP you will need these items for your UM (except Prevent Experience Drop since it's good to lose exp in those zones).

You can get all of these items by trading with other players either directly or through the auction hall. But they are VERY expensive...So the best way for a free player to play the game is to first raise up a high level toon in Basic Mode and try to make gold in game with that. By selling lapis, quest items, rare drops, and plvls, you can slowly save up a few OPs and buy the expensive things you need for a UM character. However this is a very hard and slow path so you need to be patient and stick with it. Also, joining a guild with more experienced members really helps. They might even help you get good gear and level up. Good luck.

UM's don't loose their XP after their death ... the only requirement to revive is to have a continuous ressurection rune running or using a single resurrection rune.

at other modes, they will loose their XP if the bless bar is below the half.

Been a while since I last played Shaiya, very long time, and so I was wondering... Is character creation really gone from the game? Like the customization portion. I remember this being in the game when I played last. Is there something I'm missing here?

Yes, it is gone since the last patch where they updated the client. But to make up for it, they made appearance change scrolls drop very commonly from the Loot Box in Aeria Ignite. These scrolls give you even more customization options than the character creation screen. A few tries on the Loot Box and you should easily get it.
